Duane Coker, however, had the ability to see through, cut through and drive through the bullsh*t. We endured the pain of seeing young boys be forced to visit overnight with a man who previously broke their bones, exposed them to drunken tirades which resulted often in physical attacks on them and their mother. Yet Duane remained steady, explanatory, reasonable, and calm. He knew how to remove fear by simply sharing what was really predictable. While he did not often agree with the trends of that time period as far as “reuniting” families, he understood and helped us understand the process more often than not would eventually result in justice being served. He was strategically able to minimize the visitations because he knew as well the danger involved. He knew the aforementioned support group, while well-meaning had not yet grasped the kind of criminal the father truly was. Still he adroitly managed not only the “support group” but the opposing law firm, and every situation, while being completely honest, though pointed with the judge involved. His tactics were never underhanded, but straightforward. He never resorted to trickery, but he also did not broadcast his plans.
Finally in 2017, the father gave up his parental rights, and showed his true colors: that being he had no interest in reuniting with, nurturing and fathering his sons, unless the end result could be he continue to control and thus abuse in some form or manner their mother. Duane even predicted it would happen, though he was surprised as were we all, it took so long.
The case was expensive, but this was more due to the time the situation called for. Associates were involved, filings were involved, meetings, communications, motions for enforcement, contempt, and to compel. He had staff to pay to get it all done and it was, as mentioned a five year battle. In reality the cost was reasonable and well worth it.
If there was ever a billing issue, it was fixed and it was minimal…so minimal, in fact, I barely remember .
Thanks to Duane Coker and all of the heroes at his firm, our grandsons and daughter are safe. While they still have questions and while we never spoke ill of their father to them or in front of them, the boys are healthy and growing and most of all happy, well adjusted and thriving. This too, in part is due to the solid advice given by Duane Coker.
There is no doubt in our minds Mr Coker is one of the best attorneys in the country, and his firm is simply remarkable. The results say it as loudly as do we.
Unfortunately I was in need of a family attorney due to a divorce. I was fortunate to be introduced to Lauren and her team at Coker in Denton. Lauren is efficient effective attentive,listens and best of all was sensitive to what I was going thru.
Lauren was able to make several recommendations on division of property and the creation of a QDRO that I was totally unaware of. Her advice was instrumental in the divorce being finalized where both my wife and I were comfortable with the outcome.
I highly recommend Lauren if you have any Family Law needs.
But the fine people at Coker Legal made things right!
MY attorney, Mike Youngberg, and his assistants
were so professional. And kept me in the loop with everything I needed to know.
I am so glad that I chose Coker Legal to represent me. They are, by far, the best law firm in Denton county.
So, if you find yourself in the not so pleasant situation of needing an attorney,..look no further than Coker Legal.
Thanks Mike, Toya and the Coker Legal Team for their help.

take care of your family law needs as well as Coker Legal .
The attorney on our case , Jackie Cannon and all the staff at Coker Legal have treated us very well. We have always felt like we were being cared for, that we were not just a case number.
It has been a long journey so we have seen the consistent performance provided by Coker Legal . We have also seen the great results provided by great councel. If you want a legal team that will handle business and provide results , it is Coker Legal.
It is no secret this place is a legal money mill.
And for heavens sake. Do NOT ever ask them why they are TRIPLE billing you while they are still pretending to be working for you. They will start working for your ex out of spite and screw you at every turn.
BE WARNED!!!
Jackie Cannon was the lawyer they got me in contact with and she did an exceptional job of working hard to get me out of a jam and even filing the same day to have the serving ammended. She then researched what they were charging me and found that one of the biggest charges was the claim to be reimbursed for half of my student loans. She and I were able to find Texas family code 3.409, which my wife's lawyer failed to mention, and immediately got that revoked and immediately saved me $24k.
Jackie then proceeded to work through the claims for all the tools and equipment and supplies that my wife was charging me for at new price. This removed another $6k (thereabouts).
I ended up deciding to sell the house to not have to pay my wife out of it and after all was said and done, the initial $65k that I owed my wife turned into $5k and the frustration level that my wife's lawyer's intimidation gave me went away. From there it was smoother sailing.
This law firm is a great law firm and I would even recommend using them just for a single lawyer like my wife and I were originally supposed to do. But if you feel like you need a second legal opinion, Coker Legal can really save you a large amount of frustration. They can get you back in the game even coming in 3 months late.
And one last note, they genuinely care for their clients. I know I even vented some frustrations out to Jackie and she just listened and treated me like a human and not an expense check. Divorce is a very difficult area of your life to go through and I highly recommend seeking reconciliation before you ever go through it, but for those who must face it, this is a good place to start to ease the level of frustration.
I was intrigued right away, enough to fly in from El Paso. It was an awesome experience, I had the Clarity, Confidence, and Courage just like the brochure said. The process was easy and all removed all the conflict from the conversations I was having with my wife. We were able to focus on the future ahead and move forward. I am very happy I took Duane’s advice to bring in his trusted Certified Financial Planner to evaluate all the financial stuff and do all the divorce before and after financial planning. Duane and his team of attorneys are great! Highly recommended.
